How Medications Can Impact Your Oral Health

When you start a new medication, your mouth probably isn’t the first thing on your mind. But many commonly used drugs—including over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and supplements—can impact your oral health. At Conover Family Dental in Cincinnati, OH, we help patients understand how medications affect their teeth and gums so they can maintain a healthy smile at every stage of life.

How Dental Sealants Help Prevent Cavities

At Conover Family Dental, we know how important it is to protect every part of your smile, especially those hard-to-reach areas, like your molars. These teeth play a crucial role in chewing, but their deep grooves can trap food and bacteria. Even with careful brushing and flossing, molars can be difficult to keep clean, which increases the risk of cavities. Dental sealants provide an extra layer of protection, helping to prevent decay and keeping your teeth healthy. And they’re a great option for children and adults alike.
